Backed by his band, Blacks Unlimited, Thomas Mapfumo has been at the cutting edge of the political struggle in his native Zimbabwe for over 20 years, even as he's become a major figure on the world music scene. Born in 1945 in the small town of Marondera, in the country that was then the British co. .And the music, too, got a name - Chimurenga ("Struggle"). The lyrics were direct and political on Mapfumo's first album, Ho Koyo, criticizing the government, and that was enough to get Mapfumo jailed for three months at a time when the nation was striving for independence and black guerilla groups operated and met in the bush - with Mapfumo's music as their soundtrack.

He both created and made popular Chimurenga music, and his slow-moving style and distinctive voice is instantly recognisable to Zimbabweans.

He is one of Zimbabwe's greatest living musicians. In the late 1980s, the band began to tour internationally, and made landmark recordings for Chris Blackwell’s Mango Records, Corruption (1989) and Chamunorwa (1990). In the 1990s, Mapfumo toured and released his music abroad when possible, but he kept his energies focused on home, releasing a cassette of new songs every year and playing as often as five nights a week during peak season.
